Actually I did not say everyone would stay, I said I expect few would leave for Lamer Land. (As for Win'95, I don't believe that version with Csi presence is out there yet or if it is, it has been there a very short time). Remember, CSi has over 70% of AOL's membership without spending itself into a bottomless pit as AOL has done.

Plainly you don't understand the industry. The masses will be largely unprofitable for the next few years. Unfortunately for Lamer owner/operators, Microsoft and others like Disney have the $ to prevail. Using that inapt TV metaphor, AOL = Dumont.

BTW, as long as we're reviewing history, you might recall that in May I said AOL would tank, while the AOLcultists like MF were saying it was the next thing to a cable company and worth $2000/subscriber.
